alot cheaper than reno

[Matt Cole]

Will that fit a gt? I could do with a new subframe!!

[Lewis]

Should bolt on but there are some differences where the radiator mounts. Brigsy should have a better idea what these are

[mr white]

i would have thaught so think they only list one subframe for 5`s.
ive got a valver subframe fitted to my 5 only mod was to drill the drivers side front crossmember mounting hole on the subframe about 1cm back. all clio 1`s from 90 to 98 have the same subframes inc 16v. apart from williams wich is double skined.

Its not o.e also

[phase i 16 v turbo]

Not a straight fit, one hole needs redrilling. Front driver's side.

what is that hole for? are the main four mounting points and bottom arm suspension points in the same place?

I could do with a spare myself

It is one of the main four mounting points, driver's side front. Then I had to set the tracking up again.

yep got to do my tracking again now. track rods have plenty of thread available for the extra width, fitting clio wishbones are 1cm wider either side and renault 5 steering rack fits the clio subframe fine.
do get a fair bit of neg camber though, but corected a fair amount with some camber bolts.

i want negative camber
